President Donald Trump says the White House will "probably terminate" its subscriptions to The New York Times and The Washington Post.
"The media is corrupt," Trump told Fox News host Sean Hannity on Monday night in response to what he perceives to be unfair coverage of his administration.
"Not all the media. I know some great people. I know some great journalists. But look, they give Pulitzer Prizes to people who got it wrong – all these people from The New York Times, which is a fake newspaper.
"We don't even want it anymore in the White House. We're going to probably terminate that and The Washington Post. They're fake."
Trump was discussing Hunter Biden's business dealings with China and Ukraine when Hannity asked what it said about the media that it was not, per Trump, "the biggest story of this century" that Hunter "took this 168 million from a questionable energy company."
Trump has scorched the Times and Post for years over what he perceives as unfair coverage.
On Monday, he compared the press coverage he receives to that of Abe Lincoln.
"You know who was covered worse than me? Abraham Lincoln. . . . They say he got the worst press of anybody. I dispute it," he said.
